December 5, 2000

In Friday's paper, the Sentinel juxtaposed two op-ed pieces: "Florida Legislature should butt out" by CNN's Bill Press and "Florida Legislature has every right to intervene" by law professor and author Joaquin Fraxedas.

One of these articles was well reasoned and founded upon solid legal principles. The other was emotional, illogical and filled with vitriolic rhetoric. The broadcaster's was the latter.
